Love for Mollie - and literally had this exact theme last year at work. Stripe implemented, then customer A couldn't use it due to US base, so went to Adyen, built integration, rejected as less than $5 million as first responder said, then went to Mollie.

Only gripe is no embeddable checkout but its not a huge deal, and they have superior test platform than even Stripe. The test cards are right there in slide in panel, and you have option to select paid/cancel/fail etc to test different outcomes.

When you know how old someone is by the fact they don't know any of those things.

Weird example, do people actually use multiple consumers doing different things to a single message? You just queue multiple messages with different properties and consumers process things the same way.

This is a fantastic feature.

Perfect for a use case I have currently which I built a custom Lambda function to execute.

The one missing piece is that I don't see any way at the moment on how to deal with queue message attributes. I use these to contain critical meta data across messages of different types with with cross cutting information. For example. "A tenant identifier" for a multi-tenant scenario.

That data is lost with a pure subscription as I understand it.

I work in this area and the answer to some of your questions are really already available. Rubrics/CASE/CLR/Learning Outcomes etc are known within the teaching community. Their implementation in the digital space is where you are seeing the gap. A traditional classroom environment doesn't always translate into a digital one for the reasons you specify, but thats not the only way to do it.

Looks like metrics coming through now, but delayed by about an hour.

Pretty sure this is the person who is one of the architects on the Garbage Collector in NET.

Depends on the book. I read a lot, and if I am trying a new author out or a book I am not sure of, a hardback at £20 is a bit of a risk compared to kindle 99p perhaps.

I genuinely want to support local businesses, and I make the effort to buy local from Waterstones whenever possible. But it's not always feasible with the amount I buy. I have many thousands of books, including those on Kindle. I don't have physical space for them otherwise.

I have an ELB API operations issue on my dashboard, the two together means new tasks can't get healthy. So we lost tasks in the failed AZ and new ones in a healthy AZ can't receive traffic.

I have issues with Slack also, people not receiving messages in channels.

Nothing on status board, but having serious issues with EC2/ECS Fargate and Network connectivity.

Can't start EC2 instances, and failed tasks for multiple production accounts in London.

Anyone else experiencing issues?
